/Sounds like "tah" (as in "tar") + "KEE" (as in "keep") + "sah" (as in "salsa")/

Meaning

A taco party or taco feast, an event where tacos are the main food served. In Mexico, a taquiza is the ultimate catering solution for everything from casual birthday parties to massive weddings. Someone sets up a taco station with a taquero grilling meat, and guests line up to build their own tacos with all the salsas and toppings. It is the Mexican equivalent of a BBQ cookout, except better because it is tacos.

Examples

We set up a taco party for the birthday.

They had a taco feast at the wedding and it was the best part.

Regional synonyms

A Mexican hyperbolic compliment meaning something is so incredible it's beyond comparison. Literally "has no mother," it's used to say something is absolutely mind-blowing, the best of the best. Context makes all the difference since the same phrase can be an insult in other situations.
